Built For The Shop Floor.
Not An Office Desk.
Replace sluggish, cluttered $600/month shop software with one unified, lightning-fast platform. In-bay technician split timeclocks, parts blockers, DVI condition inspections, 5-stage parts procurement, and permanent vehicle passports.
Click Through The 6 Core Workstations
See how technicians, service writers, and shop owners operate with zero modal stacking.
Photos for Marketplace & Stator Cover Inspection
Client: PJ Losey • Customer Concern: Check charging voltage and snap walkaround photos.
Everything You Need To Run A Profitable Garage.
Zero bloated enterprise sales calls. Zero multi-hundred-dollar monthly trap fees. Just clean, direct automotive shop operations designed by mechanics for mechanics.
In-Bay Tech Split Timers
Technicians punch into line items right at the lift. Supports multi-tech split percentage allocations (50/50, 70/30) and compares actual punched time against quoted book hours automatically.
QC Inspection & Safe Undo
1-tap "Mark as Complete" advances work into the shop quality control queue with photo proof. If a technician realizes they aren't done, 1 tap "Unmark Complete" rolls back safely without breaking workflow.
Live Photo DVI Camera
Snap crystal-clear walkaround photos at vehicle intake and attach condition findings directly to specific tasks. Tag health with 🟢 Good, 🟡 Monitor, or 🔴 Blocker badges.
5-Stage Parts & Stash Resale
Track part requests across 5 stages: Requested → Ordered → Shipped → Arrived → With Vehicle. Plus, log personal garage stash parts with 1-tap copy-paste Facebook Marketplace & eBay listing generators.
Instant Crew Provisioning
Add technicians in 5 seconds. Choose between auto-sending a branded invite email with direct ShopOS setup links or setting a temporary password immediately. Control 14 granular permissions per role.
Permanent Vehicle Passports
Every service invoice, inspection photo, and dyno sheet is stamped permanently into the GridPass driver network. Clients get a verified build passport that significantly boosts resale value.
